Like you said, the ULCCs have less hiring, DL is at 1100. Unsure united or AA. No FedEx or UPS.
I'd consider it temporary. UA and AA will be hiring a lot for the foreseeable future. Delta folks seem to be at about 1000 indefinitely. WN probably similar. There's gonna be a lot of hiring over the next 7-12 years but the usual caveats apply.
In this environment I'd steer far from flows. But at our level (0 121/turbine time), you take what you can get. I'd personally enjoy Envoy.. waiting :'( lol
